:D
I certainly hope the Saints are underestimating us as much as their fanbase.

Just browse Saintsreport.com if you want a taste
It's f**king frustrating to read
Of course, you have to remember that most of them are huge bandwagon fans that jumped on during the 2009 season. None of them dealt with sucking for 10 years like we've had to deal with.
I respect the Saints fans that have been around since the 1980s, they have some valid hate for us (because we always beat their ass despite their Dome Patrol defense) but f**k the bandwagoners. I agree with the OP, I really hope we crush them.

Well the automatic assumption that after they beat DET, they beat us......as opposed to our balanced (even if slightly biased) discussion on this board. It's on to how they stack up to GB. And if it's the Giants, they have them at home........they really want that home game!!
Of course, the real kicker is "I don't think the 49ers could beat even Atlanta."
And if we rematch Lions or Giants, they beat us.
There was a smart fan on their acknowledging that a great D is always a threat in the playoffs, but naturally not the majority.
It seems like in the NFL until the UPSTART officially beats the ESTABLISHED, they cannot be considered favorites....and to most fanbases -- threats.
Maybe it's good that the Saints host the Lions....if they win, they will have none of that road team swagger like the '07 Giants.
I've never wanted to beat these guys this much before......even when we were NFC West foes!!!!!!!!!!!!! (probably because we never HAD to).
and that was as Super Bowl champions.

It sure won't be frustrating to see their little bubble of arrogance go pop when the Saints leave town knocked out of the playoffs. Now I'm not saying I think the niners are absolutely going to destroy them, but the Saints are NOT the team on the road, on grass, that they are in the comfort of their dome.
I remember reading the completely fantastical stories from Giants fans on how they were going to annihilate us because they had Eli and we had Alex Smith, they seemed amused that 49er fans thought there was even a minuscule chance we would win. Oh how sweet that was.
Same goes for Lions fans. And Jim Schwartz, who told Harbaugh before the season that his team was going to suck right to his face. What's funny is the only fans I thought were not a pile of overconfident buffoons were Ravens fans, they actually talked about the 49ers with respect. I think Saints fans are scared, they just cover it up with a false sense of superiority, and deep down they know it.
